eastbound & down

Marilyn Manson has really been making his presence felt on the small screen lately, both on television and online. His latest TV appearance was on the HBO cult comedy 'Eastbound & Down,' where Manson played an inept waiter in orange short shorts.

We'd known of some impressive guest stars to throw heat during 'Eastbound & Down''s ongoing fourth and final season, but the latest could prove the strangest yet. Shock rocker Marilyn Manson dropped by this past Sunday's "Chapter 27" for a brief cameo as someone other than himself, perhaps even more unusually than his recent 'Talking Dead' appearance.

Why yes, we have used 'Party Down' as a verb for the second time in two days, thanks for noticing! Indeed, just one day after Ken Marino announced his return to 'Veronica Mars,' HBO has revealed that the formerly-catering comic will appear in all eight episodes of 'Eastbound & Down''s fourth and final season. We know Kenny Powers likes to party, but will Marino be able to keep up?

This month will see the return of one of the most controversial figures in sports, Kenny Powers.  He is back for the third season of Eastbound & Down on HBO.
